General Notes: Husband - J. B. Henderson
His early school days were passed in Chartiers Township and Canton Township, both in Washington County, Pennsylvania, and later he took a commercial course in Duff 's Business College at Pittsburgh, after which he settled down to farming with his father. After marriage, in 1892, he located in Washington and began to deal in stock. In 1901 he settled on a farm in Smith Township, where he made all the improvements which became necessary when he went extensively into the stock business. He had two sets of farm buildings and erected one set after taking charge of his property. This was known as the Valley Stock Farm, where Dorset sheep and Holstein cattle were bred from imported stock. He exhibited his stock at different points yearly and made a noted showing at the Chicago International Exposition in 1905.
He and his family were members of the First United Presbyterian Church at Burgettstown, in which he is an elder. In politics he was a Republican and at different times he was elected to important township offices, serving as commissioner and a justice of the peace.
